Team News
Long-term absentees Liel Abada, Reo Hatate, and Daizen Maeda remain out for this one. There are no other injury issues, although Brendan Rodgers recently confirmed that Luis Palma and Alistair Johnston are doubtful amid their long travel times back from Honduras and Canada respectively.
Their absences shouldn’t be too detrimental because Anthony Ralston is a capable deputy at right-back, and there are several options in attack for Brendan Rodgers, including Marco Tilio.
The Australian winger made his return to action for Australia under-23s over the international break, and it is certain all Hoops fans would be eager to see him make his Celtic debut this weekend. However likely that is, though, remains to be seen.
